SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION TO THE CORPORATE
RESPONSIBILITY REPORT 2008
This report supplements the Corporate Responsibility Report 2008 (referred to hereafter as CRR08). It contains
additional information that we consider to be of interest to all those people, institutions or groups that significantly
affect or are affected by BBVA’s operations.
Provision is made of explanations, technical aspects or additional case studies that will help to provide a more
comprehensive view of the BBVA Group’s performance in corporate responsibility and which are not included in the
supplementary information to the corporate responsibility report, SICR08, as it was deemed important to make its
length and content manageable for the reader, in keeping with the opinions forthcoming from stakeholder consultations.
The information reported here has been verified by Deloitte and follows the same order as ARCR08. On the CCR
website, it is organised into its corresponding chapters. (http://rrc.bbva.com)
